"I'm not as wealthy as you might assume. So, Sam, could you do me a favor and speak to Finley for me? Ask him to honor the original contract price."
Samantha's eyes narrowed as she gazed at Noah, who stood before her with a demeanor so brazen it was almost laughable. Her face betrayed her disdain. Can hemuster a shred of dignity?
She had just spoken with crystal clarity-Finley was a man of his word. If he stated that the price was fifty billion dollars, then it was firmly set at fifty billion. Not a penny less. No room for negotiation. That was the final word.
Samantha's gaze remained steady as she addressed Noah with a forced smile. "You may not be that old, but how is it that your hearing is already failing you? Didn't I make myself clear? Finley is a man of integrity. Since he's willing to invest 50 billion dollars to secure this deal, you must also match that amount to acquire the contract. If you're considering backing out, simply adhere to the pre-bid contract's compensation terms. Finley granted me only half an hour, and that time is nearly up. I'm leaving now. Reflect on it carefully, and once you've made your decision, contact Finley directly."
Noah stood there, speechless.
""Wait, Sam, I-"
"Sam, please listen!" "Sam!"
With a resolute expression, Samantha rose from her seat, turned on her heel, and walked away. Noah, his frustration evident, hurried after her and grabbed her arm. "Samantha, I haven't finished speaking! Why are you leaving? Besides, Finley isn't like other men-he's special. I can see that Finley has deep feelings for you. All you need to do is threaten him. Tell him that if he doesn't comply with your demands, you'll leave him. I'm confident that, no matter what, he'll agree to your terms." Noah's imagination knew no bounds.
He dared to suggest threatening Finley. What did Noah take her for?
Did he believe she was the type of person who would manipulate Finley like that?
Disgust flashed across Samantha's face as she withdrew her arm from Noah's grasp. "My greatest flaw is that I'm incapable of making threats, especially against those I care about and who love me. Finley loves me deeply, and I would never want to do anything to hurt him. Besides, I've already assisted you in winning the bid. From here on out, what you choose to do is entirely up to you. I will no longer be involved and won't interfere. Take care of yourself."
With that final declaration, Samantha turned on her heel and walked away.
This time, Noah didn't attempt to stop her. He understood that even if he tried, it would be futile. She had firmly decided-she was done helping him.
He would have to find another means to resolve his predicament.
Chapter 297 I Don't Make Threats
Outside the coffee shop, Finley's car had been waiting patiently for Samantha at the entrance.
Samantha approached, entered the car, and left the coffee shop with Finley. Finley glanced at her and asked, "I just saw Noah touch you."
Samantha had expected Finley's first question to be about their conversation inside the coffee shop. But she was taken aback when Finley remarked on Noah's touch. Samantha's lips curved into a soft chuckle. "Yes, he did touch my hand just now. Why? Are you feeling jealous?"
